Can you translate this weird email???
Bump in the night | March 15, 2002 | Bump in the night

Posted on 03/15/2002 8:34:29 PM PST by Bump in the night

It all started a while back when I received a request from someone asking permission to be added to my MSN Instant Messenger. I sent him an email asking him if I new him and if not, why he wanted to add me to his instant messenger list. He replied. He said that he had seen my email address and liked the name. He was looking for friends and thought he would try me. He also said he was from Pakistan.

I nicely replied and said that I do not add people to my MSN Messenger that I do not know.

Now, I receive e-mails from him from time to time. The emails seem to all be religious in nature (Islamic). (I don't usually read them but just delete them.)

Now, his friends are sending me emails. I don't mind to much, as they just go into my junk mail file and I delete them. But I received the following one the other day and it is written in some other language. I have gone all over the internet trying to translate it, but to no avail. I just think it's weird getting an email in some other language from someone who normally sends emails in English. Can anyone translate this?

It is titled, "Special Message", and it is from someone by the name of "khurram aslam". I'd appreciate any help.

Madina mein ek shakhs ne khuwab mein dekha ke PROPHET(MPBUH)ne farmaya " meri ummat se kaho ke quran pak ki tilawat karo, namaz parha karo aur mera yeh peghaam har jaga pohncha do" jis shakhs ko bhi yeh peghaam miley ussey chahiyeh ke 7 martaba is ko taqseem kare. Theek 10 din baad iske ghar mein khushhaali aayegi. aur agar taqeem na kare to 10 din baad gham aayega".

It's from "Songs Of The Oasis: Birth Of the Blues", copyright 1943, Abdul The Bul Bul Amir & Wives

Rough translation:

Mairzy doats and dozy doats and liddle lamzy divey

A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you?

Yes! Mairzy doats and dozy doats and liddle lamzy divey

A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you?

I thought it was:

Mares eat oats and does eat oats and little lambs eat ivy,

A kid'll eat ivy too, wouldn't you?

That's a little further down in the ditty:

If the words sound queer and funny to your ear, a little bit jumbled and jivey

Sing "Mares eat oats and does eat oats and little lambs eat ivy"

Mairzy doats

They don't write them like that anymore, eh?

Looks like something I'd type when my fingers are off by one or two keys on the keyboard.

My Urdu is rusty, but I can still get most of it:

In Madina there is a guy who saw the prophet Mohammed, peace be upon him, say, "Tell my people that the Holy Koran says that you must says your prayers [5x daily] and send this message of mine everywhere." This guy who received this message also spread it to 7 people. So after precisely 10 days good will come to this house. Or, if you don't distribute it, then after 10 days grief will come.

===========================

I would say you would be quite safe to disregard that message, but I just wanted to write it out here for interest.

It's Urdu, not Arabic. I couldn't understand many of the words but the gist of the message is that you should "spread the word" (about the prophet's teachings) within 7 days and that you will be rewarded "with happiness in exactly 10 days". If you do not obey, "a great misfortune will befall you at the end of those 10 days".

It's arabic. From the Byzantine era or earlier.

In short, it asks for permission to sleep with you wife.

He will provide fresh dates and kill your children.

There is a reference to a big booger in his nose.

May Allah be praised! : - )
